Prove me wrong

>user praised Wolfe fans for taking criticism in a reasonable way
>thread is full of Wolfe fans getting mad over criticism
Top kek, Wolfe is a great writer but his die hard fans are autistic retards.

What are you talking about? We barely talked about Wolfe last thread

Every instance of criticism, was it the characterization of women in BotNS or him sometimes going overboard with his prose was met with
>no u
>plebian

>him sometimes going overboard with his prose
Wolfe doesn't go overboard with prose. Or at the very least I never had any trouble reading his books. I don't know what everyone else thinks about his prose
>characterization of women in BotNS
No one mentioned this at all

Daily reminder:
There are people here right now that consider asoiaf to be among the greatest works of fantasy literature.

And anons wondered why the rest of lit looks down at /sffg/

Is it normal to find the descriptions of the environment in the Lord of the Rings difficult to follow? It's difficult for me to envision the landscapes being described because I dont have sufficient knowledge of a lot of these terms used to describe woodlands and tree/rock formations etc.

Also I think the elves just set up a feast in the woods which is not something I expected from the films.

>tfw there are no sff lit that can compete with battle shonen

Is this any good? I've heard its gotten great attention but I hardly hear any hype or anyone being a big fan of it.
